I am on Debian 7.6.
I installed zlibc from the Debian repository,
and compliled from zlibc-0.9k .
I have yet to get it to work. Both fail to uncompress with simple commands
like cat(1) and head(1) .
For example:
zcat /etc/alternatives/xjc.1.gz | head

# by default, commands may also unlink compressed files
commands default use unlink
commands "xman" use disable
# Eamcs has its own way of handling compressed files
commands "xemacs" use disable disable_child
Any ideas as to what might be wrong?
